still not born :/ contractions been running almost a week now :/ getting incredibly annoying. they made it to “the pain scale” tuesday or so, which is certainly an improvement in that they had told her not to worry about coming in again until they started to hurt of course, then they told her when [...]
a pair of technophiles, computers and electronics EVERYWHERE … we’re going all jungle hippy with the baby :o kiir’s planning to not use formula, we’re talking cloth diapers, we’ve got a sling to try carrying the baby around on person rather than always in a carrier/etc
*sigh* spent most (all) of yesterday at the hospital. got there at 10, got out in time to not make it to the pharmacy before it closed at 5. kiir was still doing 60-sec contractions every 4 minutes, although they were still very light. and the baby was quietd (not kicking/moving/etc like usual) … so [...]
a contraction by any other name … is probably shorter, frankly :o kiir was having contrations yesterday evening, and at 5min apart, >1min apiece, over more than an hour, that’s hitting all the triggers for “go to the hospital”. but we called the midwife first, just to get some feedback on what she thought, figuring [...]
it’s spring, time for new leaves! first off, we’re letting the krav memberships lapse when they come up for renewal. because I’ve spent 100$/month for a year and been fewer than half a dozen times. Maybe in a few years i’ll be in a place where I will go more often. 6 or 7 and [...]
we’ve been planning (since last fall) to get a HDD camcorder when the time comes. baby being under a month away, I guess the time is here ;) went yesterday to check out the Sony DCR-SR80 60G HDD model at Ritz … asked what others they had, and he told us they usually have teh [...]
got the border up in baby’s room this afternoon. took a while, but i tacked it up, then checked it, tweaked, repeat. when it was good i started at one end and took out hte tacks as i peeled out the backing and smoothed to the wall. not 100% level, but i’m not convinced the [...]
so, dropped my car off this morning for the insurance appraisal. and apparently i get a rental car whilst it’s in for repairs :o AND i don’t have to pay for it! holy crap! cool :o anyway, got the call this afternoon. my 5.5 yr old chevy impala is worth 6-7k (4-5 if i try [...]
so, thursday after my mother-in-law left, and while waiting to make sure her flight was taking off before taking my shower/going to bed, i put together the shelves for the dining room. that wasn’t too hard. so saturday i dropped K at camp so I could do the living room shelves. larger, heavier, more unwieldy. [...]
seriously, my dog was whack this weekend. Thursday was his shots. 24 (well, technically, it might be 48) hour hold before he’s allowed back at camp, to make srue tehre’s no reactions to the shots. hey, i can dig it. and he’s relatively down the day after his shots anyway, so it’s all cool. and [...]
